Unlike Riot I actually live in the State of WI and don't just rely on the media for my information. I actually experience these things first hand. The recall signature collectors obviously were not very intelligent because they showed up in the Town of Delafield (quite wealthy community) where families were there to have their picture taken with Santa and his reindeer. You could also meet the reindeer. It is a nice idea and some good family time that is paid for and supported by the Chamber of Commerce. There is a time and place for everything and this was not a time to discuss politics. Unfortunately the democrats and union supporters do not understand this.

Even though you live in Wisconsin, Riot knows more than you do about politics there. She gets all of her info from the best propaganda sites.

You mean contact with people who have actually been out collecting signatures and are involved with the process? Contact with people that live there? Yes.

I grew up in northern Illinois, have many family and friends in Wisconsin, have spent alot of time there, and I care very much what happens in Wisconsin. Both because of the people I now that live and work there, and as observation of the Koch Brothers and ALECs attempt to pass their massive and horrible legislative agenda.

As Wisconsin Governor's Poll Numbers Tank, GOP Moves to 'Rig' Recall
John Nichols on November 16, 2011 - 2:43pm ET

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s support has collapsed, according to a new poll that shows that 58 percent of voters favor recalling the Republican whose anti-labor initiatives provoked the mass demonstrations that anticipated the Occupy Wall Street movement.

According to a new St. Norbert College/Wisconsin Public Radio survey of Wisconsin voters, only 38 percent of voters now support retaining Walker as governor. That represents a ten-point drop in support for the governor since last spring, when it was presumed that he had bottomed out.

In fact, they have continued to decline, with significant movement of previously undecided voters into the anti-Walker camp. Thirty-seven percent of Wisconsinites now “strongly disapprove” of Walker’s governorship, while 21 percent merely disapprove.

Among the most engaged (and presumably likely) voters, the figire rises to a remarkable 61 percent overall disapproval number for the governor.

By those standards, i suppose that I'm incredibly knowledgable about the politics of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.
